TRANSPORTATION GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

32. RESERVATION OF CAPACITY FOR EXPANSION PROJECTS
Transporter may elect to reserve, for future expansion projects,
unsubscribed firm capacity or capacity under expiring or terminating
firm transportation agreements where such agreements do not carry a
right of first refusal or where Shipper does not exercise its right of
first refusal. Transporter may only reserve capacity for a future
expansion project for which an open season has been held or will be held
within one (1) year of the date that Transporter posts such capacity as
being reserved. Capacity reserved under this Section may be reserved
for up to one year prior to Transporter filing for certificate approval
for the proposed expansion, and thereafter until such expansion is
placed into service. Capacity that is reserved for a future expansion
will be made available for transportation service on an interim basis up
to the in-service date of the expansion project. For such interim
service agreements, Transporter reserves the right to limit Shipper
extension rights, including the right of first refusal, within the
service agreement. Transporter will indicate in any open season posting
of this capacity any limitations on extension rights that will apply to
such interim transportation service.
Prior to reserving capacity for future expansion projects under this
Section, the subject capacity must have first been made available
pursuant to Section 18.1(c) of these Transportation General Terms and
Conditions. Capacity that remains available after the posting and
bidding procedure outlined in Section 18.1(c) may be reserved by
Transporter by means of a posting on Transporter's Internet website that
shall include:
(a) A description of the expansion project for which the capacity will
be reserved;
(b) The total quantity of capacity to be reserved;
(c) The location of the proposed reserved capacity on Transporter's
system;
(d) When Transporter anticipates holding an open season or otherwise
posting the capacity for bidding in connection with the expansion
project;
(e) The projected in-service date of the expansion project; and
(f) On an ongoing basis, how much of the reserved capacity has been
sold on a limited-term basis.
